Air New Zealand - change of livery

[Lee G]

Looks like our Kiwi friends are taking the black concept across their whole fleet.

I'm sorry to say but I think that looks pretty naff.
Losing the teal and blue seems like a mistake to me. They really are the colours of New Zealand as you look out of the window when the coast is on the horizon...
At least they could have swept the black around the fuse a bit, like Qantas' red or possibly Thai's purple or maybe even Aeroflot's blue... And edged it with a silver pinstripe or something...
Eurowhite with a black tail.
Maybe it will grow on me.

Probably Not a lot different from the Air NZ Star Alliance A320 ZK-OJH Color Wise?

This is on par with JAL and Finnair, such a disgusting change. The teal was the last thing that made the thing somewhat unique after removing the wave, and down goes the history as well, they've had that colour since they operated the flying boats. Very disappointing NZ.

I'm waiting for an official release with a decent graphic showing the changes before comparing to JAL and Finnair.

It's been on one website so far, and the graphic used looks very amateurish - I would expect NZ to not be as bad as that.

[James S.]

I sincerely hope you are correct! :)

Anything got to be a improvement of the current livery.

Hope the font used is bold and stands out from a distance unlike the Virgin Australia one.

They should paint all their planes black like the All Blacks 777 :D
